Our Team

Brian Vavrina

I was born in Maryland and raised in Texas. For nearly 20 years, I’ve worked on projects in the United States and around the world. After nearly 10 years as National Sales Manager with a manufacturer, I started BV Associates in June of 2007. I’ve served on the Maryland Chapter of ASLA’s executive board for 19 years and chaired the 2008 International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) Mid-Atlantic Conference in Washington, DC. I’ve been a guest lecturer at Texas Tech University, Virginia Tech University, and Morgan State University. My hobbies include boating, photography, and music.

Theresa Jeffery

I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Corporate Communication at the University of Baltimore. My work experience includes direct marketing, inside sales, ecommerce, customer service, and bookkeeping. The work I do with BV Associates is best summed up by saying, “a little bit of everything.” When I am not working, I spend as much time with my two children and husband as possible. I’m a small dog lover and have two pups to prove it. Our family loves boating, biking, dance parties, gardening, and traveling.

I believe patience, positive attitude, attention to detail and organizational skills are key factors to best serve our customers. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family, cooking, long walks and traveling.
